Japan chooses the hard way, says Ramsey
GUAM. Monday, July 30.—CP)— TTtp invasion of Ja.pan will be made by the ‘most overwhelming forces ever concentrated in military history." Rear Adm. DeWitt C. Ram-Pev. chief of staff of the fifth fleet, said today in the first official Pacific fleet comment on Japan’s rejection of the Potsdam surrender ultimatum.
“It's a harsh fate our enemy has chosen,” he said. “In all world history there is no more glaring ex-ample of a nation imposing disaster upon itself. For these people the language of bombs and guns apparently is the only convincing
language.”
Ramsey is on Guam on the staff of Adm. Raymond A. Spruance’s fifth fleet which turned over the air-sea battering of Japan to Adm. William F. Halsey's third fleet late in May. His statement was the first from the Pacific fleet in answer to Japan's rejection of the ultimatum issued Thursday by President Tru-mart, Winston Churchill, and Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek calling on the enemy to surrender or be destroyed.
Ramsey said that in one sense "the invasion of Japan already has begun.” referring to the daring third fleet carrier and warship attacks on the homeland as well as to the tight blockade of even interisland shipping lanes.

The meeting was in its closing stages and an official spokesman announced that the conference was “progressing satisfactorily.”
Secretary of State James F. Byrnes met this morning with the foreign secretaries of Britain and Russia to prepare an agenda for the afternoon’s meeting of the three principals.
The final communique may reveal some of the decisions reached at the_conferences. However, there was a possibility it would merely announce their closing with a later date set for simultaneous announcements by the heads of the three states.
(Columbia Broadcasting Systems Edward R. Murrow reported from London that they belived “one of the principal Russian negotiators has stated that his country will go to war with Japan—and soon.”)

Sigma Xi men to discuss jet
“Jet propulsion” will be the subject on which R. E. Marquardt, engineer in charge of the jet propulsion research program at SC and an expert in the field, will discuss at a gathering of Sigma Xi, honorary graduate research society, Wednesday, at 4:15 p.m. in 145 Hancock building.
Having received his engineering training at the California Institute of Technology, Mr. Marquardt has served two years in Northrop Aviation’s engineering division. While in this capacity, he has also acted as chief of the jet propulsion program at SC and has been a leader in the research for improvement of jet propulsion airplanes.*
Dr. W. W .Smith, member of Sigma Xi and assistant professor of bacteriology, remarked regarding Mr. Marquardt’s lecture that although many phases of his work are still under wartime secrecy, there is enough specific information available to make this one of the outstanding programs of this group.
Continuing, Dr. Smith said, “His talk will embrace a survey of the basic principles of the various types of jet propulsion motors, an analysis of the features of present motors, and the effects of these features on aircraft design and performance.”
There will be no admission charge for this lecture which is open to the general public.
Peters calls meet for Legionaires
Final summer-session nominations and the election of officers will be held at a meeting tonight of the Capt. Charles W. Paddock American Legion post 615 at Patriotic hall, 1816 South Figueroa, at 8 p.m., announced Art Peters, adjutant.
Commander Robert Rocco, officiating at the meeting, will lead a discussion of the revision of the constitution. Recent actions in government policies toward,the returning veteran will also be discussed, according to Peters.
In line with their program of offering educational features for the edification of the students and faculty of SC, the Trovers are presenting a forum discussion on “How Should Germany be Ruled to Prevent Future Aggression,” today at noon in 206 Administration. • ,
Participating in the discussion will,-;—
be Dr. Harold von Hofe, professor of German, and Ake Sandler, teaching assistant in general studies.
Both men have traveled extensively throughout Europe and are known to be well qualified to discuss so vital a topic, according to Frank Soares, Trovet president.
“It is my opinion that the occupation of Germany should continue until her people have been thoroughly cleansed of any taint of Nazism,” stated Mr. Sandler.
“If this should require 20 or 30 years or even 50 years, I am heartily in favor of it because it is vital to world security that this be done and done right.”
On the other hand. Dr. von Hofe feels that “the occupation should be as short as possible, at the most, four years. The presence of an occupying force in Germany for too long a time will certainly not lend itself to helping the Allies to get the cooperation of the people in trying to remove the stain of Fascism.”
In discussing the treatment of the war criminals, Mr. Sandler made the statement that he felt that all the old-time members of the Nazi party should be summarily executed. He said that men of the type that composed the Nazi party in its early days are so ingrained with the principles of Nazism that they are beyond all hope of saving and that they must be destroyed.
Dr. von Hofe, when speaking of the problem of re-educating the German people to the way of life of the Allies, said that he felt that in order to insure the proper education of the people, the occupying forces should use professors and teachers taken directly from the German people. “Of course they must be thoroughly investigated to make sure that they have no Nazi sympathies. It would certainly create less resentment among the Germans to have their own teachers than to have them feel that we are *
trying to force our own type of government down their throats by the use of our own educators. Then the cry of ‘propaganda’ would certainly arise.”
Both Mr. Sandler and Dr. von Hofe advocated increased political freedom for the Germans as soon as possible. It was pointed out by Mr. Sandler that the Russians have already allowed the formation of several political parties.
These, of course, are under rigid Russian observation at all times,
Mr. Sandler concluded.
Soares has invited all members of the student body and the faculty to attend.
Current events of lasting interest and far reaching significance are explained in the summer issue of World Affairs Interpreter which went on sale Friday in the University bookstore, said Dr. Willett L. Hardin, editor.
Featured article is “The Five Strongholds of Peace” in which Leopold C. Klausner, former director general of the Pan-European Union, states the main issues which must be solved following the war. He stresses the following points:
1. Germany should be broken up into six autonomous states.
2. All European countries except Biitain and the Soviet Union should be united in a United States of Europe.
3. Japan should be completely demilitarized and re-educated following its collapse.
4. There should be created an
American trans-Pacific security belt
of fortified islands from the west coast to Japan.
5. The San Francisco charter should be ratified, and a lasting world organization set up.
Featured in the spring issue was an article by Dr. Frank Hamon Garver, professor of history, titled “The Treaty Veto of the United States Senate.” The second installment of this article appears in the summer issue. In his artiele Dr. Garver suggests, “It behooves the people of the United States to reexamine the methods by which our treaties are drafted and ratified."
The fact that the Treaty of Versailles was defeated by the requirement of a two-thirds vote of senators at the end of World war I and kept the United States from entering the League of Nations has caused “not only the United States, but every other democratic country in the world” to suffer.
Two recent conferences are analyzed in “One Month of San Francisco” by Alonzo Baker, teaching assistant in political science, and in “The Mexico City Conference,” by Donald D. Johnson, assistant in general studies.
Halsey forces smash Tokyo for 21st day
GUAM, July 30.—(U.P.)—Adm. William F. Halsey’s British and American third fleet hurled another heavy air-sea blow against the Japanese homeland at dawn today, sending more than 1000 carrier planes against the Tokyo area and hurling more than 1000 tons of shells into Hamamatsu, 135 miles southwest of the rubbled capital.------.
Emerging from a security blackout which had masked its actions after Saturday’s third day of devastating attacks on the Japanese fleet in the inland sea, Halsey’s forces carried their unprecedented onslaught against Japan into a 21st day.
It was the fourth blow of the
series against the Tokyo area,
which last was struck by carrier
planes on July 18. Since opening
the current sweep with the July
10 carrier-borne assault on Tokyo,
Halsey’s forces now have made
nine major carrier attacks in
which more than 11,500 sorties
were flown and bombarded the
Japanese coast six times with 5500 tons of shells.
Adm. Chester W. Nimitz, in announcing the new blows, also revealed that final figures for Saturday’s attack on the inland sea by both British and American airmen were 283 Japanese planes destroyed or damaged and sunk or damaged 189 ships.
